This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Architecture, buildings, construction, city planning and public spaces. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.
- Adding a new AfD discussion
- Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
- Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
- You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Architecture|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
- There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
- Removing a closed AfD discussion
- Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
- Other types of discussions
- You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Architecture, buildings, construction, city planning and public spaces. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.
- Further information
- For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

- Delete - After conducting a BEFORE search, sufficient in-depth independent coverage of the subject of this article could not be found. It seems the article may be an autobiography, while that is not a reason for deletion (although it's strongly discouraged), it's clear that the architect does not meet notability criteria for WP:GNG, WP:BASIC nor WP:CREATIVE. Unless proper sources are found, the article should not be retained in the encyclopedia. Netherzone (talk) 14:09, 5 July 2025 (UTC)

Delete per WP:TNT -since at least some of the citations don't match the subject, either the creator made serious mistakes, or the sources were generated by AI. Bearian (talk) 20:46, 5 July 2025 (UTC)
- Keep per WP:HEY. I have copy edited for translation problems, rescued deadlink citations, removed unsourced content or content that didn't seem to fit, and added info to expand the article. With regards to the AfD nomination, an article's content must be verifiable, but do not need to be online. Thus, we don't assume the content is wrong just because its source is not online. Also, MOS says to leave deadlink citations in place, so that is normal and not a problem. Thus, I don't believe the reasons behind the AfD are justifiable. Rublamb (talk) 03:41, 11 July 2025 (UTC)
- Keep after the re-write the article is much clearer and now includes the related school and details of the christmas fair with references, some offline which is permitted. So exercising WP:AGF for offline sources, deletion is unnecessary in my view, Atlantic306 (talk) 21:41, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

- Keep The article is about a historical church (almost 200 yers old). So, it has historical importance and has encyclopedic value. Also, the references used are quite authentic. I find no reason for the deletion of the article. Rangan Datta Wiki (talk) 14:21, 13 July 2025 (UTC)
- Keep per above historical church.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 14:37, 13 July 2025 (UTC)
- Keep – Scholarly works (Anthropological Survey of India 2002; Bhattacharya 1981) together with a full-length 2016 Anandabazar Patrika feature and other independent historical sources provide reliable coverage, and hence the subject meets WP:GNG and WP:NBUILD. Aeon Sentinel (talk) 13:58, 17 July 2025 (UTC)
- Comment: I am not sure that some of these new sources provide WP:SIGCOV:
- I can only see the Google Books preview, but Bhattacharya 1981 seems only to have a trivial mention and doesn't contain the word "Meherpur", which concerns me as it apparently supports
In the 19th century, Chapra, Nadia was the center of missionary works for the Meherpur subdivision of the undivided Bengal (now West Bengal, India
. - The "Christian fair" article makes up a plurality of the citations, but is only vaguely about the church -- it's really about the fair. I'm only working from a translation, but I also can't see that it supports, as claimed,
The four-day fair blends traditional Christian and Indian traditions and has some 20,000 participants each year
(though it does mention that the fair includes a specific Indian practice, singing kirtan). Even then, it seems to be local news, which isn't normally evidence of notability. - The High School history page isn't independent, as the school was founded by the church: in any case, it's WP:PRIMARY and WP:ABOUTSELF. Even then, the mention of the church is trivial.
- I can only see the Google Books preview, but Bhattacharya 1981 seems only to have a trivial mention and doesn't contain the word "Meherpur", which concerns me as it apparently supports
- The Sessional Papers source has a single trivial mention -- and is a document from the British parliament from 1904, which may fall under WP:PRIMARY.
- I can't access the Diocese of Barrackpore source, but it seems likely to be a trivial/administrative mention rather than a detailed discussion.
- That leaves only the Nadia District Gazetteer that I can fully vouch provides WP:SIGCOV (though even then it's not massive) within a source suitable for WP:GNG. If we only one good source provides significant coverage, the article should not be kept, but rather merged into an article about the town. I don't want to vote delete at this stage, as most of this is absence of evidence rather than secure evidence of a problem, but would be reassured if someone with access to the sources could overturn my impressions of their coverage. UndercoverClassicist T·C 07:39, 18 July 2025 (UTC)
- Keep: I vote to keep this article because it provides valuable information about Chapra Christ Church, demonstrating its notability and relevance. With further research and reliable sources, the article can be improved to offer a more comprehensive overview of the church's history and significance. 2RDD (talk) 10:55, 18 July 2025 (UTC)
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: UndercoverClassicist's extant sourcing concerns need to be addressed to reach consensus.

- Keep per HEY. Sometimes all we need is to cut out the AI drivel and hallucinated sources, and touch up the page, and we have a start article. I'm impressed with the rescue, since I had no hope. Of course it needs more work for a rainy day. Bearian (talk) 15:00, 19 July 2025 (UTC)
- Weak keep I share UndercoverClassicist's concerns about the current sources. I have not been able to find a source which clearly gets this over a WP:GNG line. However a couple scholarly searches and book searches come up with at least mentions of the church including a 1904 sessional mention in British parliament. These might be mentions, but I'm confident someone with access could find something that would get this over the line. SportingFlyer T·C 20:40, 19 July 2025 (UTC)

I cannot find reliable independent sources to support WP:GNG. This house is located in Angelino Heights Historic Preservation Overlay Zone but does not itself have any historic recognition. It is not on the National Register of Historic Places, nor is it a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument. Sharing lot lines with two Los Angeles Cultural Monuments doesn't give this house notability. There is no reasonable redirect target where a mention of the house could be made.

- Delete per nom. The biggest thing that would have helped here would have been the NRHP listing, lacking that, and lacking any other reliable sources... it fails GNG and should be deleted. Iljhgtn (talk) 18:55, 8 July 2025 (UTC)
- Delete From what i can see here the article fails to meet WP:GNG and WP:NBUILDING. There is no significant independent coverage in reliable sources to show notability, and the house lacks any historic designation cause it is not on the National Register of Historic Places. Its location within the Angelino Heights HPOZ does not confer individual notability. After nearly a decade tagged as unsourced, there is no evidence that the subject warrants a standalone article. Deleting is very much appropriate. Icem4k (talk) 14:05, 10 July 2025 (UTC)

- Keep A cursory look at the area geography shows the importance of this bridge and that to cross again, it's either a ferry trip or a 60 mile or 150 mile drive to the next upriver or downriver bridge crossings. This isn't routine, and this would be the equivalent of the Mackinac Bridge in Michigan being compromised, forcing a long detour or the re-launch of ferry services. It's an important transportation corridor and definitely notable. Nathannah • 📮 16:31, 2 July 2025 (UTC)
- Merge into new article on Juscelino Kubitschek de Oliveira Bridge The bridge itself has a substantial Portuguese language article, and we should too; and it makes sense to me that the collapse ought to go into that article as a major section. Mangoe (talk) 18:53, 2 July 2025 (UTC)

Nominator is a new user who has hit the ground running and creates lots of these AfDs through copy-paste or text expanding and wastes precious community resources.

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
The page is mostly made up of obvious AI-generated content that cannot be verified, as several of the links are broken and the rest are in Arabic. One section, "Analyzing Spatial and Social Dynamics of Caravanserais Using Space Syntax", is clearly made up. It is written in the format of a list, and is highly repetitive, containing very little useful information and talking at length about minor details. Buzzwords such as "vibrant", "cultural", and "enhance" compromise its encyclopedic tone. Since these features have ben present since the first version, this article cannot be reverted to a previous version to fix these issues, and a copyedit would require replacement of almost every section in the article.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Somepinkdude (talk • contribs) 17:44, 30 June 2025 (UTC)

The page was started in 2017 so we're not in TNT land, and the "every version of the article" is clearly wrong: see [3]. I'd revert myself but don't want to disrupt the AfD.

- Merge to Theater (structure)#Seating and audience. Currently this fails WP:DICDEF, but this is mainly a theatrical term, not a stadium-related term. For seats in stadiums, these are mostly referred to as "bleachers" in the US. – Epicgenius (talk) 17:44, 28 June 2025 (UTC)
- Weak Delete, okay with merging and/or redirecting if appropriate. It's a topic that could quite reasonably be encyclopedic. The fact that certain desired information (reason for the name) is missing is not a reason to delete. Its being an unreferenced stub not significantly expanded since 2005 suggests we're not likely to build on what's there. -- Avocado (talk) 21:17, 30 June 2025 (UTC)
- Delete and hope that someone adds to Theater (structure)#Seating and audience information about seating sightline and sound requirements (if it fits there). I've searched in books on stadium and on theater design, and this term, Stadium seating, is not used for the concept intended here. Theater design literature has detailed calculations for determining "sightlines" which includes determining the degree of incline for the floor. I didn't find a handy term for the concept, but I just have to believe that there is one. It may require a stand-alone article or it may fit entirely into Theater (structure).

- Merge into Stadium#Spectator areas and seating as the more expectable location to end up when typing the word "stadium" as one half of the search term. Inclusion and wikilinking on theater (structure) is optional, and if stadium seating is discussed as a theater term there, that could also work. In either case, "stadium seating" is a likely search term and we do have related content that we can direct readers towards. Utopes (talk / cont) 22:21, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

The result was keep. I see a rough consensus here that while the tone may be promotional, sources indicate notability. Editors are encouraged to reword or remove any promotional content. Owen× ☎ 12:10, 13 July 2025 (UTC)

- Weak Delete Given that an administrator of Arabic Wikipedia believes that notability outside of promotional material has not been established, I am inclined to agree. I cannot validate sourcing in English to any degree that shows notability, and it would require a lot of cleanup to get this page in working order. Nonetheless, I think it could Return to Draftspace.

- @Cremastra: Citation 2 and 3 are both to middleeastarchitect.com, and therefore not independent of each other. Is there a third independent source to establish notability? —Femke 🐦 (talk) 07:40, 5 July 2025 (UTC)
- @Femke: It was my understanding that WP:GNG requires multiple, reliable, secondary sources which are independent of the subject. Since the magazine seems to be independent of the subject, I don't see a problem with citing two different articles in it. If you're making reference to WP:NBASIC, which requires sources to be intellectually independent of each other, I don't see a problem there either, since the two articles are not derivatives of each other and are about different subjects. This footnote on NBASIC makes it clear what "intellectually independent of each other" means, and I don't see a problem here with that. Cheers, Cremastra (talk) 15:26, 5 July 2025 (UTC)
- Hmmm.. In WP:SIRS (WP:MULTSOURCES) that is explained differently, possibly because the notability criteria are stricter for organisations. I may have applied this too broadly in the past? —Femke 🐦 (talk) 20:06, 5 July 2025 (UTC)

Apparently non-notable parish church in metro Detroit. The only source provided is an official parish history, which is obviously non-independent. A WP:BEFORE search turns up nothing usable except a local news piece on its 155th anniversary, which is not enough on its own for a WP:GNG pass as a standalone page. Open to a redirect to List_of_churches_in_the_Roman_Catholic_Archdiocese_of_Detroit#South_Region, where it is mentioned, but bringing it to AfD since it has already been draftified and returned to mainspace without improvements, so I didn't think a WP:BLAR was appropriate in that situation.

- I found more in a WP:BEFORE search including sources from 1890: [7]. The book Catholic Churches of Detroit (Godzak, 2004) may not quite be SIGCOV, but there's good mention in Irish in Michigan (Metress & Metress, 2006). I stopped searching there. This absolutely needs better sources, I'm not yet convinced it's a keep but if it's not it's not too far off. SportingFlyer T·C 08:15, 16 June 2025 (UTC)
